  Opened up a bit hot and unbalanced, but calmed down nicely over the next 3 hours. Give this one some time to wake up after opening, but it's drinking super sexy now. Tertiary aromas of wet tobacco leaf, cedar, and worn leather appear before a refined plum and blackberry aroma shoes itself. Palate is smooth with polished tannin and shows flavors similar to nose. Smells hotter than it tastes. It's fantastic now, but could wait another 2-3 years if you think it will cool its slightly hot temper down a touch.
